If the only thing your country is known for is nutmeg, you know you’re obscure. We visited Grenada as part of our cruise through the Lesser Antilles. We got off at the port of St. George’s, which was also where most of the action was. Our first destination was Fort

Guadeloupe is a French territory in the Caribbean. Everyone speaks French, so if you expect to find signs or text in English, you’d be sorely mistaken. We’ve visited Guadeloupe twice, similar to Dominica. The first time was in our dual trip to both Dominica and Guadeloupe, while our second visit

We started our trip to Estonia with a drive. Through highways we made the relatively short trip from Riga to Tallinn (3-4 hours). “Are we there yet?” I asked, insanely bored. We had to make some sacrifices when it came to luggage, and as a result, I was only allowed

Ecuador is the only country I’ve visited in South America, and it was amazing. Such diversity in attractions should be envied by other nations. From natural sites to some of the best churches for sightseeing, Ecuador has it all. On our first day in Ecuador, we didn’t do much. We

Things went smoothly until the end. The end wasn’t too smooth. Our goal was to first visit Split, in the far south of Croatia, then spend the night there. The next day, we would visit Plitvice Lakes National Park, and then we would visit Slovenia’s Lake Bled on the way

I have technically visited the United Kingdom. Technically. I don’t count it because you can’t see Big Ben or Stonehenge in the British Virgin Islands. Instead, the nation is more like an anglicised US Virgin Islands. They use the U.S. Dollar, and nobody we met had any sort of British

We visited Canada surprisingly little – only twice, and for a few days each. We’ve visited three places in Canada. First is Niagara Falls, which we visited on the way to Toronto, our second destination. The third place we visited was Montreal. We drove to Montreal on a long drive
